That's messed up! I guess he let himself go after his career was over. I remember when he was coming up, they had that big heavyweight card in New York and he fought Juan Carlos Gomez on HBO.

Did he become a fall down drunk after his career was over or was his liver condition from something else? Anyway sad news RIP.

I remember his fight with Danny Williams, he wasn't the most talented or technical but was tough as hell, kept coming forwards even when power shots were bouncing off him and once he started landing his own shots he got the KO. RIP.
